CLAY BAR TREATMENT
Our clay bar treatment is a two-stage decontamination process designed to safely remove embedded contaminants that regular washing leaves behind. This service leaves your paint ultra-smooth, improves shine, and prepares the surface for polishing, waxing, or ceramic coating.
We start with a chemical decontamination using iron and tar removers to break down industrial fallout, brake dust, and road grime. Then, we follow with a mechanical clay bar or mitt treatment, gliding over the paint to remove bonded contaminants like tree sap, overspray, and stubborn road film.
The result is a clean, smooth, and properly prepped surface—essential for achieving the best results from any paint correction or protection service.
Pricing is quote-based starting at $119 depending on the vehicle’s condition and level of contamination.
This service is an add on and requires minimum stage 3 exterior clean
Chemical Decontamination
Before touching the paint with clay, we apply iron and tar removers to chemically break down embedded contaminants like brake dust, industrial fallout, and tar spots. This minimizes the need for aggressive claying and reduces the risk of marring the paint.
🧪 Products used: CarPro IronX, TarX
Best for: Regular maintenance or coated vehicles that need gentle prep
CLAY Decontamination
Once the surface is chemically decontaminated, we glide a clay bar or clay mitt over the paint with proper lubrication to physically remove bonded contaminants like overspray, tree sap, and stubborn road film. This leaves the paint smooth and ready for polishing, waxing, or coating.
